Anne Summers is one of our most influential writers, the author of the now classic Damned Whores and God's Police, former editor in chief of the New York magazine Ms - a pioneer of feminism. Her own story is powerful. She comes to Bendigo on Saturday Oct 27 to talk about her astonishing memoir, Unfettered and Alive.
